MY COLLECTION: Primers

Hi everyone! How was your weekend? I had this nasty flu last week that I got after a night of clubbing. I gotta bring up my immune system, because I get the flu way too often. Today, I would like to show you another part of my makeup collection - my primers. The majority of my primers are mattifying / pore minimising ones, because of my combination skin. Without further delay, let's get started.

PORE MINIMISING / MATTIFYING PRIMERS / Bazy zmniejszajce pory i matujace
I have two pore minimising primers, which are actually my favourite because they work the best for my skin. Not too drying but not too hydrating either. I got the Lirene No Pores Mattifying Primer in Poland. It has a creamy texture and sinks into the skin very quickly. Same goes for the Catrice Prime and Fine Pore Refining Anti Shine Base. Creamy, ideal for combo skin and fairly inexpensive.

SILICONE PRIMERS / Bazy silikonowe
I always wanted to try out these gel-like primers to see if they would work for me. I noticed that I shouldn't use these primers all over my face but just on my problematic areas. The one that I use is the L'Oreal Infallible Mattifying Base, which I reviewed HERE.

ILLUMINATING PRIMERS / Bazy rozswietlajace
These sort of primers are great under very matte foundations like the Essence 2-in-1 Camouflage Foundation. It makes the foundation have a lovely satin finish without making me overly dewy. I bought the Catrice Beautifying Primer a while back because of a recommendation from DramaticMac on YouTube. Although I have combo skin, I enjoy using this primer to give a little bit of a glow under dry foundations.

COLOUR CORRECTING PRIMERS / Bazy CC
This is one of those primers that I don't reach for very often. I have the Catrice Anti-Redness Primer that I got from one of my best friends. It has a faint green tint that aims to combat redness on your skin. I would not recommend using this on your whole face, as it can make certain parts of your face dull. The way I like to use it is just on areas that need colour correcting like my nose and my chin.

So that is all for today! Tell me in the comments what your favourite primers are as I definitely want to branch out more. Thank you all for reading and talk to you soon!No i to wszystko na dzisiaj! Napiszcie mi w komentarzach o swoich ulubionych bazach, bo z miłą chęcia bym je wypróbowała. Do następnego :)
